In these tough economic times there are many people who are now facing the tough decision they are no longer able to keep their beloved pets. I've thought about how overwhelming it would be to face this decision knowing that you only want the very best for you pup after having received their unconditional love so I have put together a list of things to consider when trying to decide on a proper home.
If you are faced with this very hard decision, make sure to call your breeder to advice them of your intentions. Reputable breeders what to know there puppies are being properly taken care of and many have it written in their contracts to they MUST be contacted. This goes for any dog that was a former rescue or adopted from a shelter. They all have rehome clauses in their contracts.
Here are a few things that I think are very important when rehoming your pup:
1. Never offer to rehome your pup for free. It is very important that you ask for some type of REASONABLE fee. In this forum, the maximum amount if $350.
2. Do NOT allow you pup to leave your care without being spayed/neutered. There is no telling what someone's true intentions are when looking for a dog. There are plenty of accidental breedings or worse yet unreputable breeders willing to snatch up a cheap or FREE unaltered Yorkie.
Spay/neuter is a MUST! 
3. Make sure to ask for a vet reference and
call the vet. Ask questions about the perspective new owners responsibility with their current or previous pets. This is a MUST DO as you want to make sure that they will take the very best care just like you have done.
4. Take time to visit the home to check things out and allow the owner to meet you and your dog. It will give you a very good idea of who they are. If they are really sincere about giving your dog a good home this should not be a problem.
5. Be honest about your dogs habits and behavior. You cannot hide the fact that he/she might have accidents in the house, is a barker or any other quirks they might have. If you are honest about these things and the perspective owner is accepting then you can feel more secure in your decision and you will accomplish finding a wonderful new home.
6. Always consider surrendering to a Reputable Rescue. A good rescue will take their time and work to find the very best fit for all of their fosters.
If there is something that I have left out please add it to this thread---I'm sure there are things that I have left out.
